Beeryland

Great selection of burgers. I had the Smokehouse which was great but also huge. The side of Grilled Mac & Cheese was very good and easily something two people can share. They also have many beer & drink options, including slushy drinks. I had a pumpkin ale draft beer.Outdoor seating but I was under the roofed area which also has plenty of heaters along the ceiling.Conveniently located down Telegraph from the Moxy Hotel if you happen to stay there.

Chill spot to hang out in Uptown with beers, cocktails, and frozen slushies! Plus they have a solid food menu with a number of burgers and sandwich options.My party of 3 came for a quick drink Saturday night around 8:30 pm. We wanted to go to another bar nearby originally, but it was closed for a private event so we headed here instead.There are two main seating areas, one in their outdoor patio with one central heat lamp, and an open indoor seating area with overhead heat lamps. It was much warmer inside, so we opted to sit inside.The indoor area has a big projector screen with a movie playing. Subtitles were turned on, as they were also playing music very loudly. It was honestly a bit hard to talk with the loud music.We went up to the bar to order. Since it's a beer garden, I expected to see mostly beer options, but I was very pleasantly surprised by the selection. in addition to beer ($8 for all drafts), they have a couple of cocktails as well as seasonal holiday cocktails, all for $12. They also have alcoholic frozen slushies. I got a glass of the mango nada (tequila + mango) for ~$12.I wasn't a huge fan of the mango nada as it was too sweet, but I really like the vibes here. It was a chill place to hang on a Saturday night in Oakland.

This was a nice find for Jamie W. and me. We had bought tickets for "Barbie" at The New Parkway nearby. We had a half-hour to kill before laying our eyes on Ryan Gosling's abs of steel and Barbie's Dream House (in that order). Initially we weren't interested in beer and burgers. Geez, do we look like frat dudes? It was an open air space with worn picnic tables and the brick walls covered with murals.Actually their food menu was quite extensive. A lot of burgers and a lot of sandwiches though no fries. Also a lot of draft beers and a good set of cocktails. Sounded like a frat party to us, but then we noticed they offered different flavors of slushies, five of six with alcohol. Even with frozen $14 temptations like Daiquiri and Paloma, we were most drawn to the Mangonada. It's one of my favorite Mexican treats.In its original form, it featured mango sorbet, chamoy, and fresh mango spears. The transformation here turned it into a refreshing Tequila Sunrise slushie with vodka and mango puree mixed together with the chamoy and the pint glass rimmed with chili lime seasoning (photo: https://bit.ly/3YGXKAx). The result was tantalizing. The vibe here was convivially urban as it was a mix of tech heads (yes, free WiFi), hipsters, and even young families. Fun on a weekend afternoon.COCKTAILS - 4 stars...the slushies get quite addictingAMBIANCE - 4 stars...honestly like a block party in the inner citySERVICE - 4 stars...cheery staffTOTAL - 4 stars...hard to imagine not having fun hereRELATED - Exploring Oakland?

This is one of my favorite bars in Oakland! On a hot day, they have bomb slushies that'll cool you down, my favorite is the mangonada. On a chilly day, I'll go with the 2 step, shot and a beer that'll warm you up for around $10, oh yes they also have heaters. The burgers/sandwiches are straight legit here, don't sleep on them. Perfect place to start your night or end it on a good note.

I was on a burger tour and Telegraph Beer Garden was 3rd and last on my list so I was already pretty full. Got the 5150 burger which is as mix of beef and bacon patty with lettuce, tomato, onion, and sauce. It also came with a side of chips. The burger itself was pretty juicy and flavorful, probably because of the bacon but felt really heavy. I loved that it was a soft pillow-y brioche bun and the veggies helped cut through the fat. Their alcoholic slushies area also really good too! They seem to have a lot of events going on during to the week so a good place to hang out and grab a bite.

I came here under the impression they may not have an impossible burger. BUT THEY DO! So glad they do. I ordered an impossible burger w/cheese, overall one of the best burgers ever. Def was made with love. I asked for no tomatoes and received tomatoes, but it was an easy fix I just removed it. The other burger that was ordered was a fade 2 black. My friend was thinking about getting a burger for the past week from here. I asked him how he would describe his burger. He said "bussin." Lmaooo. We received the salt & vinegar chips and the funky fusion. Salt & vinegar was alright. Not something I would pick normally. The funky fusion was amazing, def would pick this one next time. We came during a warriors & laker game, not too packed but def cold. We sat near one of the fire heaters, still cold from the breeze. We moved to the tables in front of the screen & there's heaters up top, extremely warmer there. Service was 10/10, food was 10/10, environment was 10/10. Def coming back here.

Went up for the "dollar beer Monday's " as advertised for years. When I ordered the bartender said that was an old advertisement from 2020.That was a lie. I was in here last October and they had dollar beers.Update your website or honor it!Don't you ever lie to a customer holding cash!Sorry I support you during Covid but you pushed the profits.Have a nice day.

Perhaps I'm not a huge fan of such a thick patty and prefer smash burgers. Had the burger with black garlic. While the brioche bun was great, I felt like the meat itself lacked the required flavor punch. Service was friendly and drinks were good. Relaxed vibes not crowded. Dog friendly.

This is the perfect spot to hang out with friends. They have great music playing, gorgeous artwork all over, and a good selection of beer. Their burgers are very juicy and flavorful. Would highly recommend!

I love beer gardens and my group of friends and I had a great time here (AKA Telegraph Beer Garden). Lots of space, an upscale menu for a beer garden, excellent cocktails, and great service. Outdoor heaters for when the sun goes down. Highly recommend.
